Automated External Defibrillators Save Lives
Imagine two jumbo jets crashing and killing all on board. Nationwide about that many people die every day from sudden cardiac arrest. Now, imagine a safe, simple device about the size of a lunchbox and price of a laptop that could have saved many of those lives. That's the power of the Automated External Defibrillator or AED.
 With CPR and AED training, the power to save a life could be at your fingertips.
We help meet our mission of saving lives through an AED sales facilitation agreement with Philips Medical Systems, one of the world's leading electronics manufacturers.
Featuring The HeartStart OnSite AED:
The HeartStart OnSite AED is designed for the ordinary person in the extraordinary moment. 
In fact, it is so easy and safe to use, it is the only AED approved by the FDA for home and for use without a medical director's approval or prescription. Users are also protected under Virginia's Good Samaritan Law.
Weighing just 3.3 pounds, this small and lightweight defibrillator can be easily carried to the patient's side. Using clear, natural voice instructions, the HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator guides you, the first caregiver on the scene, through each step of defibrillation and CPR.
